		<description>I think we need (our conservative) blogs to enable us to remain sane. That's not easy. (Well, my favorite 'can you believe what the Left did now' righteous voice is titled Dr. Sanity.)

Americans exist in a manipulated media world, much of which doesn't connect to the 'real world.'  Bookworm's readers know the real world is there, and are determined to unveil it.  The Left/MSM have decided it is a myth and a victim to their latest power politics.  Why allow concerns about terrorism or the future?

The Left's anger, born in the Vietnam war era, has been shown to be shallow,  selfish, miscontrued, at its heart, completely immoral. The Iraq mission has said again that Americans are a good people capable of righting great wrongs.  The Left will never forgive the President for leading us to the truth.

America is a good country, one that can--with the grace of God-- grow to be even better.</description>

		<description>P.S. Just found out. See, the Left doesn't do blogs to have a conversation. The Left does blogs to 'feel better about themselves'. So they don't really like it if you start a conversation or make a point that disagrees with them. It's not that they disagree and don't like, it is rather that emotionally they don't like it. And that's different from simple intellectual dislike.

I received an email from Van, after I replied to one of his comments at Neo's site. Since it was an old comment, I posted the comment on his blog, just so he has the convenience, you know.

&lt;b&gt; Are you some sort of an idiot?

I would appreciate it you would stop leave comments on my blog that have absolutely nothing to do with the thread.

Go back to the hole that you came out of and stay there - moron! &lt;/b&gt;

- by van

He wrote that as a comment on my blog, and I received it in email form. So let me get this straight, a Lefty fan of Roosevelt, says he would appreciate that I did not leave comments on his blog that had absolutely nothing to do with the thread. And he feels that leaving a comment on my blog in reply, somehow justifies his position... Oookay.

I don't mind people who want to communicate directly with me leaving a comment on my blog, it is after all what it is there for... right?

Van, like all fake liberal lefty Democrats, don't seem like to have conversation. This is true of some on the Right as well, so it is not an ideological difference but an emotional, intellectual, and maturity issue. But even so, statistically there are a lot of people on the Left that don't like to have conversations as a way of challenging their internal beliefs.</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;It's actually a very sad article, in that one can only feel pity for O'Connor, who has to live bathed in that anger. &lt;/b&gt;

There's two kinds of anger. The explosive hot form of anger, and the coldly calculated precision version of anger. (Aruba is good example, beth holloway)

Many in the military and even more in command positions and SF slots have the cold version of anger. Anger and rage are very useful tools of motivation, as the army have found out in bootcamp. But an undisciplined form of anger, which clouds your judgement and destroys your ability to do the mission and not do your vengeance first, is also a great danger to military commanders who hold the lives of their men in their hands.

Controlled anger, in all situations, beat explosive rage in terms of direct power to weight ratios.

The first time you experience cold anger, you will find it very interesting. Because you are thinking with a clarity of thought unknown to any enraged beast. Not only does it give you clarity of thought, but it also gives you laser point concentration. If you fail in an endeavour, you automatically are thinking of the next thing to try. In addition to the intellectual benefits, the enraged benefits of anger still apply. Increased strength and stamina, increased ability to withstand pain, and the removal of societal inhibitions on violence and civil conduct.

A lot of martial arts instructors seem to tell you that anger is useful, but it also clouds the mind and therefore should be avoided as it interferes with learning the form of martial arts. Obviously, martial arts instructors aren't teaching you how to survive in war or how to accomplish assassination missions. The concentration of mind and will, is many orders greater than is required for simple self-defense. And not many have the fortitude or the determination to achieve such limits.

We feel pity for Mary Queen of Scots, because it is obvious who controls who in this scenario. She no longer uses or controls her anger, the anger controls her and makes her do its bidding. Such a person would not last 5 seconds in mortal combat. For such a chink in their armor spells instantaneous fatality.

&lt;b&gt;Her numbers sound marvelous until you start thinking about the bigger numbers.&lt;/b&gt;

Her numbers also sound marvelous until you understand that face to face, she is vulnerable to 10 times what you would be vulnerable to, Book. Then it doesn't seem so advantageous.

Bloggers and we make a difference. Simply because a lot of people realized that the world wasn't a bake fest place to be in, after 9/11. But they need information and the best information they can get is from blogs like, Book. Without that information, they will not know what to do, with their disorientation, and thus might be prey to enemy subversive tactics. The democracy of America has always relied upon the principle that a well informed public will make the right decisions independent of political corruption.

The media with their fake but accurate stories, the judges with their Rule of Judges IED called stealing people's property, are all those that people should and will fight against. But without a Thomas Paine, they will not know how, they will not know to what they fight for nor what they fight against. thus, adrift in a sea of nothingness, they fall, one by one, in the struggle for a contemptible cause. (Palestinian cause)

I don't put much paid in opinion leaders, contrary to Don. I'm far more of a grass roots Jacksonian for that.</description>

		<description>I read the article, and I agree she's a loon.  Another one justifying her anger on the basis of her loss.  But the one thing that I took exception with is the idea in the subheadline that Lefty bloggers are taking a page from the Right.

Now I agree there are plenty who hated and continue to hate Bill Clinton and HRC.  But I can't believe that it ever reached the level that it does with the Left, which have seemingly adopted this hatred as a party platform.  Some of the crazy stuff spouted by Carter, Kerry, Gore, etc. would practically get you excommunicated from the mainstream Right, and of course the press never calls them on this (their usual double-standard).

Guess the WaPo author couldn't live without a swipe in passing.  Sort of reminds me when Clinton blamed Limbaugh and others for the Oklahoma City bombing.</description>

		<description>Trust me, folks, despite her modest self-assessment in the above entry, Bookworm is never boring!  She is just as fascinating in person as she is in her blog.

As to the content of the entry, blogs do make a difference, not because they reach masses of people (they don't) but because they reach opinion leaders, who take whatever insight they get out of the blogs &#38; pass it on to a much wider audience.</description>

		<description>If she speaks to people the way she writes, I can only imagine the language her 6-eyar-old son uses! Children learn by example and I certainly wouldn't want to be that kind of example to my girls!

For the most part, I avoid the far left blogs because of the language, not because I am a prude or easily offended, but consistent use of profanity simply shows a lack of thought, imagination and is just plain lazy. I shouldn't say it's exclusive of left blogs either.  There are some right blogs that get out of hand with the language, but unlike the left, it isn't their normal mode of communication. (At least not the ones that I read with any regularity.)</description>

		<description>And as an addition (since I took a moment to check out her blog), she start's with a picture of herself? (I'm guessing here since the photo is captioned glam-sham).  But if it is her, she would be considered attractive--that is until you read "A Radical Leftist Liberal Socialist Commie Feminist Pinko from Hell" where she uses language that would make a sailor (and I was one, once upon a time) blush.  I am always amazed at how ugly (and less intelligent) people appear when they begin to swear profusely.</description>
